Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the haunting violin intro into the thick, rubbery bassline of Chiba Funk.

The explosive, technicolor chorus of Icarus IV where the vocal layers reach a dizzying, celestial height.

The bossa-nova-tinged rhythmic shift in Analógico Brasil that feels like a warm breeze through a studio window.
